    Lisa, your block is stunning. Using the fabric that you did, gives a whole new look to the pattern. Do you mind if I copy your idea? :D
    I would consider it the highest compliment!

    I don't blame you; your fabric is gorgeous. Do you buy it at your LQS? I have never seen anything like this in my town. Congraulations on another beautiful block.

    I just used a buttonhole stitch on my machine but instead of the one stitch going onto the applique, I turned it the other direction and stitched it on the outside of the applique going away from the piece. it gives an "eyelash" look that way.

    What a beautiful block. I love the way your colors blend together so well. I may use your block as an inspiration when I get to block 3.
